o the waking world. "Why the fuck are three Black Spiral rebels here? You three are in serious trouble..."
"Sorry..." said the Reaper. "We only want to get back home."
Spazura just stares at the Reaper.
"We... We came here as the Black Spiral placed us here likely out of punishment for rebelling against them."
"State your faction," said Spazura.
"We're-..." said Slime Tutorial.
"Mercenaries..." said the Reaper.
Spazura sneers. "I don't believe you."
"Well, we are. Unless you want to have a go," said the Reaper, squinting his eyes.
"Your son must be very, very disappointed in you, huh?" asked Spazura.
The Reaper's eyes widen.
"Miguel Kojoji..." said Spazura.
"Wait, YOU'RE MIGUEL KOJOJI!?!?" asked Slime Tutorial.
"Holy shit..." said Lord.
"Look at you. Pretending to be a god in broad daylight... Pretending to be one of us where at night you moonlight as some Halloween-costume-wearing vigilante."
"My parents were eaten by Aswangs before me when I was younger," said the Reaper.
"So, you used to hunt Aswangs... a highly discriminated kind in your world..."
"I stopped."
"But was that enough? My little animal?" smiled Spazura. "You bring shame to the gods. Just another idol flawed by his madness."
"I don't stand for idolatry. It's a mask so-..."
"You can keep being what you really are. You ARE the mask. You're a killer who enjoys killing.. An animal. What makes you any different from us? Hm?"
"Shut up!" boomed the Reaper.
"No wonder your son abandoned you..."
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
The Reaper remembers...
SPLAT. CRACKKKK. CRUNCHHH.
These are the sounds that came from the bones of a supervillain the Reaper was torturing.
"Dad? What the hell are you doing?" asked Miguel Azral, now moonlighting as the Aswang.
"He'll live. Just broke his bones. He's young."
"But people don't deserve to be-!"
"SHUT UP!!!" yelled the Reaper. "This motherfucker is a fucking drug addict who killed and elderly woman. He deserves to pay."
Miguel sees that a boy, likely the man's son, stood at the corner, staring and stunned by fear. "Not like this..."
The Reaper beats the man.
"DAD!!! STOP!!!" yelled Miguel. "The kid's watching!"
"Good. Then he won't act like his Dad," said the Reaper, coldly, as Miguel backs away.
The Reaper turns to Miguel. "Kid..."
Miguel just shook his head. "I'm cutting myself off from you, Dad."
"KID!!! NOOO!!!" The Reaper cried out, as Miguel leaped off the window and flew away with his wings.
Back to the present...
The Reaper fell to his knees, lips quivering and eyes tearing up.
"You two... What makes you tick? Hm?" asked Spazura.
Spazura inserts his fingers into Jed's brain and sees...
Jedan is seen kneeling over a pool of blood. He sees his parents' faces, mangled with C'thulhu's face emerging from their skull.
"Your parents were dealing... with someone... I knew... who was dangerous... And he rightfully cleansed them from your Earth... And you had to watch them... became a Splooge addict to wipe away your tears." Spazura turns to Chris. "How about you?"
Chris fell to his knees.
"Your father kicked you out of the house... and you were experimented on by a group of evil scientists when looking for a job..."
Chris screams on the medical table while injected by the Splooge...
"Heh... No wonder you're all so fucked..." Spazura sneered.
Spazura sneers, teleporting back into his throne as he stomps down the staircase.
"Why'd you teleport back to your throne to go back stomping back to us from your throne?" asked Chris.
"That was just an illusion. He used his brainwaves on-... CHRIST SHUT. THE FUCK. UP!!!" boomed the Reaper.
Spazura loomed over the Reaper. "You. Both of you deserve to die... for even thinking about stepping into this city."
"If people are meant to die for thinking things, I should've died a long time ago..." The Reaper activates his bone armor and charges toward Spazura, who grabs the Reaper and shatters the Reaper's bones by pointing his finger and slamming the Reaper into the ground, shredding him down.
Jedan and Chris back away as the Reaper digs himself out of the ground, growling at the royal guards.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" yelled Jed. "Just... We need to get back home, man! C'mon!"
"Hm..." smiled Spazura, pointing her finger at them, only for them to hear a loud noise from the distance.
Suddenly, a bee-themed Superhero lands before them.
The Reaper is utterly confused by encountering him. "Who the fucking shit are you?"
"I AM HAPPY HORNET!!!" smiled Happy Hornet.
"You mean... the restaurant chain mascot?" asked the Reaper.
"What the fuck are you doing here?" asked Slime Tutorial.
Lord Marvel points at him. "HE LOOKS SO FUCKING STUPID!!!" He laughed.
"HEY, HONEY... I'M HOOOOME!!!" Happy Hornet beams out several bee drones that feast on the flesh of the royal guard gods, where Happy Horney offers his hand to them. "COME WITH ME IF YOU WANNA-!!!"
Spazura teleports next to Happy Hornet, but Happy blasts stingers into his eyes. A plague of bees clouds the entire room until everyone is gone.
Spazura roars. "FIND THEM!!! BEFORE MORNINGSTAR FINDS OUT!!!" he boomed, as the remaining royal guards salute and march out of the palace...
